Elaine Schram put her presentation on the easel. She sat down at the conference table. She was nervous. This was her first major presentation to the department and to Mr Halsteen.

Ben walked in. He had a sour look on his face. The other people from the department came in and sat down. Mr Halsteen sat down next to Elaine.

She whispered to her boss. " What did Mr Firestone have to say?".

Ben sneered. " Nothing important". He stared at the others. " Let's begin the meeting". He looked at his watch. " We'll start with Elaine's presentation". He pointed a finger at her. " Ready Elaine".

" Yes, I am". She flipped the front page of her presentation. " Mr Halsteen". She noticed he had no expression on his face. " After hours of suggestions and my own ideas". She smiled and flipped a page. " I have come up with a simple slogan for the Macanac T bone steak". Smiling, she explained the success of the Macanac T bone and the rising sales of the product for the company. 

At the end of her presentation, she flipped to the last page. " Mr Halsteen". She looked at her boss. There was no expression on his face. " My simple slogan for the Macanac T bone steak is " A Macanac T bone, why not try an original".

An angry look came over Ben's face. " That is the slogan you and this department have been spending all your time on".
